If not having as many illegal aliens was hurting the economy, this would show up as a labor shortage in the areas traditionally served by these people, such as construction and restaurant service. Unemployment in these specific areas is still high, so this writer is full of Del Taco.

Not entirely. Supposedly farmers here in Georgia are feeling a pinch from the lack of illegal alien farm hands and some restaurant association has said that everything is going to cost more because of the lack of illegal alien labor.

I think its a good thing. I don’t see much difference between slavery and illegal alien labor and I think that having a large group of disaffected people (like illegal aliens) within our borders is a threat to personal and national security.
